[RFC PATCH v2 0/4] Simple ACPI based PCI support for arm64

This is a very simple and generic implementation of a PCI host controller
based on ACPI. This approach does not pull in the MMCONFIG and ECAM code
from x86. The MCFG table is a simple ACPI table, and there is no need to
move the complex code from x86 (sorted linked list with a lot of global
vars) to acpi for parsing it.

The config space access is done with pci-host-generic style simple
mapping and generic PCI config read/write.

This is tested with arm64 QEMU and OVMF. Comments are very welcome.

I would also add that I am posting this as an option, if another
implementation is accepted upstream, I would happily drop this.

Thanks,
JC.

v1->v2:
 - use CONFIG_PCI_MMCONFIG on arm64, provide a weak implementation
   of pci_mmcfg_late_init for arm64.
 - The real implementation of pci_mmcfg_late_init is in pci-host-acpi.c
   and it will save the MCFG table entries to an array. Earlier this
   was done with an arch_init call
 - remove unneeded pci_bus_add_devices call and fix MCFG saving code
 - Added a patch to ACPI pci_root.c to handle arm64 PCI IO resources

Jayachandran C (4):
  arm64: pci: Add ACPI support
  PCI: Handle NULL parent in pci_bus_assign_domain_nr
  PCI: ACPI: Add a generic ACPI based host controller
  ACPI: PCI: Support platforms that need pci_remap_iospace
